Corn means summertime to me! Start with six ears of freshly husked corn, which yielded about 4 cups or enough to serve four people. By toasting the kernels in a cast iron skillet, you can develop a nutty taste. Savory white miso and soy sauce add a deep richness to the corn. A touch of honey brings the dish together by subtly accentuating the corn's sweetness. Garnish with scallions to provide a burst of freshness.
I prefer fresh corn in this recipe, but you can substitute 4 cups of thawed frozen corn if desired.
INSTRUCTIONS
Remove the corn from the cobs.
In a medium bowl, whisk honey, soy sauce, and miso. Set aside
Heat a 12-inch cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add corn, onion, and poblano pepper. No need to add oil. Cook until al dente, about 2-3 minutes. stirring occasionally. You want to maintain a crunch while allowing the heat to release the sweetness from the corn, onions, and poblano pepper.
Remove from heat.
Add to the honey, miso, and soy sauce until coated about 30 seconds. Add ground pepper and toss for another 10 secdons.
Garnish with scallions cut on the bias. May be served warm or at room temperature, but I prefer to chill for 2 hours then serve.
